According to the New York Post, Roseanne Barr's new "cooking" show, Domestic Goddess, has been cancelled. There's no word on the fate of her "reality" , The Real Roseanne about the making of the "cooking" show, but it's fate is likely not good. And that makes me happy, because I watched part of the first episode of the reality show, and I had to turn it off because it made me want to kick Roseanne's ass, and the asses of her entire family.
What a bunch of lazy, good-for-nothing jerks who have more money than they deserve already, but are trying to get back on TV to make more money for doing absolutely nothing. The whole first episode was about coming up with a concept for the new "cooking" show, but although they keep meeting, and eating, and screaming at each other, and fighting with plastic swords, no one actually attempted to think of a concept for a show. They ended up going to a pitch meeting (late, because they were getting donuts) and pitching nothing but a vague description of what the show would be.
The agents started to ask them a bunch of questions about the show like, "Would this been in a studio, or would Roseanne invade the homes of celebrities and cook in their kitchens?" and you could see the faces of Roseanne's family light up, like "hey that's a good idea!" and you could see they never even thought about how the show would work.
Mentally, you start running through all the stuff you have to do in a given day, and you realize, "holy crap, these people have tons of money for no reason and I'm working my ass off.... I hate them!" And then you turn the show off and delete it from your TIVO.
